That might not be enough fucking off, but it will at least be a start…
Points for creativity I suppose. The whole “that flag’s fringe is all wrong, neener neener!” approach is a little played out
F*ing prison sentences. How do they work?
God once let a bunch of people nail His son to a piece of wood just to make a point.
If she truly didn’t believe that God’s children should be jailed, why would she be a Republican instead of opposing the carceral state? Principles that only apply to yourself are not principles.
Got some news for ya, Sparky:
I don’t think your act is gonna work too well for the next nine years.
If she can prove the efficacy of the magnetic mattress in a double-blind sleep study, I say let her have her stupid magnetic mattress.
In jail.
“You are no hero. You abused your position and you’re a charlatan who used, and is still using, your prior position in office to peddle a snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and time again in your world,” 21st Judicial District Judge Matthew Barrett told Peters at her sentencing. “I’m convinced you would do it all over again if you could. You’re as defiant as a defendant as this court has ever seen.”
“You are a charlatan, and you cannot help but lie as easy as it is for you to breathe,”
Is she trying to virtue signal here? Or is she implying that as True MAGA Believer that she is a true child of God and that the rest of us heathens that don’t aren’t?
Prison will be uncomfortable and make it hard to sleep…
I mean, I have trouble sleeping on anything other than my mattress, but then again I am avoiding doing things that would get me sent to prison.
“God doesn’t like people messing with his kids.”
Well, God certainly doesn’t seem to have been in a rush to punish the nonces in his church.
she explained in court that she was a child of God, and then warned the judge that “God doesn’t like people messing with his kids.”
Did her lawyer know she was going to say this? If so, how hard did they try to convince her not to?
She could have just said she did it because the President told her to do it.
